Chapter 14: Lunch Together

Xiang Wanqiao of Gu’s Group went directly into the lobby on the first floor. When she was about to pass the gate, she found that she couldn’t pass without a card and was stopped by the security guard.

The security guard looked her up and down and asked, Are you an employee here? Why haven’t I seen you before?

I’m not an employee here. I’m here to see your president.

Seeing our president? The security guard’s eyes became a little more vigilant. Do you have an appointment?

Xiang Wanqiao answered honestly, No.

The security guard didn’t care who she was. When he heard that she didn’t have an appointment, he didn’t let her in.

Sorry, you can’t go in without an appointment. Come back another day.

Xiang Wanqiao was amused by the security guard’s seriousness and said in a calm tone, I made a private appointment with your president.

Private appointment?

Well, if you don’t believe it, you can ask the front desk to call Xiang Yuan, the special assistant.

Hearing the name Xiang Yuan, the security guard walked to the front desk half-believingly and asked the girl at the front desk to call the general manager’s office on the top floor to confirm the situation.

Xiang Yuan received the news that Xiang Wanqiao came to Gu’s in the conference room, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

You know, in the past, Xiang Wanqiao didn’t even want to set foot in Guiyuan, let alone Gu’s Group.

She hated everything that had to do with Master Zhan.

Today, she actually took the initiative to come to the door. I don’t know what she is up to.

Even though he didn’t like Xiang Wanqiao very much, considering how much this master cared about her, he still had to inform him of the news.

Xiang Yuan moved his chair forward, leaned close to Gu Jingzhan’s ear, and said to him: President, the wife is here, now in the lobby on the first floor.

Gu Jingzhan was surprised at first when he heard the news, and then his cold and calm black eyes gradually smiled.

The next second, he stood up and said in a cold voice: Today’s meeting ends here.

After speaking, the man took long steps and walked out of the meeting room quickly.

Everyone: ???

What’s going on?

He was still scolding them in the last second, and the meeting ended in the next second?

Xiang Wanqiao was waiting outside the gate. After a while, she saw Gu Jingzhan slowly coming out of the elevator and walking straight toward her with steady steps.

The man was tall and straight, wearing a well-cut black haute couture suit that outlined his broad shoulders and slender waist. He exuded the majesty of a superior and the calm aristocratic temperament.

Every step he took toward her made her heart race.

Now, Xiang Wanqiao began to reflect on herself again.

I really don’t know what I was thinking in my previous life. I’m afraid that my brain was filled with water. I didn’t want to have a man as good-looking as Gu Jingzhan, but I actually liked Xiao Xuan. Stupid, so stupid!

Why are you here?

The coldness wrapped around Gu Jingzhan faded half, and his cold voice became more tender.

Xiang Wanqiao raised her eyebrows, and her tone was a little playful: What? Can’t I come?

Yes.

What were you busy with just now? Why didn’t you reply to my message?

I was in a meeting just now and didn’t look at my phone.

After replying to her, Gu Jingzhan noticed that her dress today was very different from when she usually appeared in front of him.

Xiang Wanqiao noticed that he had been looking at her and was afraid that he would think too much and misunderstand her intentions, so she explained, I just spent more than an hour dressing up at home to come and see you and have lunch with you. How is it? Does it look good?

Gu Jingzhan had no expression on his face but just hummed lightly and replied coldly with two words: Looks good.

Seeing that he answered so blandly, Xiang Wanqiao’s eyes flashed a trace of loneliness, and she felt somewhat unhappy.

However, the hall was full of people, and those people’s eyes were all cast towards them, full of curiosity and surprise.

Xiang Wanqiao couldn’t hold on to this matter. After comforting herself, she stepped forward, took the man’s arm, and asked him softly, Are you done now? Can you have lunch with me?

Where do you want to eat?

I’ll listen to you this time.

Gu Jingzhan looked at her with deep eyes and then took her out of the Gu Group Building.

Oh my god! Did you see just now that Mr. Gu was so gentle to that woman!

Who is that woman? She is so capable of turning our living devil into a docile puppy!

But didn’t they say before that Mr. Gu was married?

So what if he’s married? The one in Mr. Gu’s family doesn’t care about him at all. After a long time, Mr. Gu will be lonely!

That woman seems to be the one Mr. Gu married half a year ago, the eldest daughter of the Xiang family, Xiang Wanqiao.

Didn’t they say that the eldest daughter of the Xiang family and Mr. Gu are not in love? But looking at their interaction today, it doesn’t seem like they have a bad relationship!

It is said that the eldest daughter of the Xiang family doesn’t love Mr. Gu, but loves Xiao Xuan’an, the illegitimate son of the Xiao family, and loves him to death. A few days ago, she not only divorced Mr. Gu for him, but also committed suicide!

No way!

For a while, there were many different opinions.

The words discussed by the people in the Gu Group fell into Xiang Yuan’s ears to some extent. Although they were all facts, they were in the workplace after all. It was always a bad influence to discuss the employer’s affairs in the workplace.

He immediately tagged everyone in the big workgroup.

[Special Assistant Xiang: @Everyone]

[Special Assistant Xiang: During working hours and within the company, you are not allowed to discuss anything related to the president and the president’s wife casually; otherwise, you will bear the consequences!]

As soon as the notice was sent out, Zhan Jiu called.

He was very excited on the phone and asked Xiang Yuan incessantly, Xiang Wanqiao went to Gu Group? What did she do at Gu Group? Is she still determined to steal the secrets of Gu Group?

When she came, the security guard stopped her in the lobby on the first floor. After Mr. Zhan knew about it, he went down to pick her up, but Mr. Zhan did not bring her to the office but went out to have lunch with her.

Xiang Yuan calmly explained the situation to Zhan Jiu.

At the end, he added, So I haven’t found out that she has such a motive yet.

Eating lunch? Zhan Jiu always felt that Xiang Wanqiao had bad intentions. I think she wants to fool Master Zhan first, and then implement her plan!

Xiang Yuan chuckled and said helplessly, Even if it is, so what? Do you think your words have weight in front of Master Zhan, or can you persuade Master Zhan?

Zhan Jiu was silent for a few seconds and replied, Neither.

So, you have no way.

It would be easy for everyone else to say, but this person is Xiang Wanqiao.

Although Gu Jingzhan also suspected that her motives were not pure, he was always defenseless against her.

What can they, as subordinates, do?
